This serif shows pronounced thick–thin modulation with crisp, tapered terminals and bracketed serifs that feel finely cut rather than blocky. Uppercase forms are stately and open, with generous counters (notably in C, O, and G) and a slightly varied rhythm across widths that keeps the line lively. Lowercase shapes read as traditional and text-oriented, with a two-storey a and g, a relatively narrow e, and compact joins that maintain clarity at paragraph sizes. Numerals are lining and similarly high-contrast, with sharp beaks and subtle curves that match the letterforms.
It suits long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where refined contrast and traditional structure support comfortable typography. It also performs well in display settings—headlines, pull quotes, and formal stationery—where the sharp terminals and elegant modulation can be showcased.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, projecting a poised, editorial voice associated with literature, academia, and traditional publishing. Its contrast and crisp finishing add a sense of sophistication, while the familiar proportions keep it approachable for sustained reading.
The design appears aimed at a conventional, publication-ready text serif with elevated contrast and polished detailing, balancing familiar readability with a more refined, dressy finish for editorial and formal applications.
Diagonal strokes in letters like V, W, X, and Y sharpen to fine points, reinforcing the high-contrast, engraved feel. The italic is not shown; all samples appear upright, relying on stroke modulation and serif detailing for expression.
